+/* The C Programming Language: 2nd Edition
+ *
+ * Exercise 5-18: Make `dcl` recover from input errors.
+ *
+ * Notes: The book does a poor job of describing what the reader should
+ * do here. Given that 5-20 calls for a refactor of `dcl`, my solution
+ * will simply complain at missing parens and brackets, and silently
+ * accept semicolons and comments at the end of the input line. Those are
+ * considered "errors" to the book's version of the program, and so this
+ * solution will fix them.
+ *
+ * This solution does not handle more complex data types such as const,
+ * static, long ("long long ..."), {un}signed, etc. It also won't handle
+ * arbitrary parentheses. Really simple stuff.
